Job Title: Machine Learning Engineer, Physics AI
Location: London
Salary: Up to £100,000 DOE
A VC-backed AI startup is looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to help build foundational AI models that replace traditional physics simulation methods. The company is working on some of the hardest physical engineering challenges in automotive, aerospace, and energy, delivering AI that rivals simulation accuracy at orders of magnitude higher speed.
This is not a generic ML role. You will be working at the intersection of ML research and engineering, contributing to core model development, shaping architecture decisions, and deploying performant systems into real-world design optimisation workflows. You will work closely with ML researchers, software engineers, and industry partners on problems that have direct industrial and environmental impact.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we are looking for
- MSc or PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field
- Strong track record applying ML to complex real-world problems, ideally involving geometry or physical systems
- Deep understanding of ML theory including optimisation, generalisation, and model architectures
- Strong Python skills with hands-on experience in PyTorch, TensorFlow, or JAX
- Experience deploying and monitoring models in production grade pipelines
- Ability to communicate complex ML concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
Particularly strong candidates will also have
- Familiarity with aerodynamic principles or computational fluid dynamics
- Experience with physics-informed machine learning or integrating physical constraints into models
- Experience with geometry representation for ML, including 3D or mesh-based approaches
- Prior experience with design optimisation algorithms in an engineering context
